10,000+

Did you know that over 10,000 complaints and reports have been received by the OPI since ICAC commenced?


What should I report?

You should make a complaint or report to the OPI if you think a South Australian public officer has broken the law, or acted in a way that is seriously inappropriate or negligent.

This would include the conduct of any state or local government agency, South Australia Police or other government authority, and the people who work with them and for them.

Does the Commissioner investigate every complaint and report?

The Commissioner does not investigate every complaint and report. Some complaints and reports are investigated by SA Police, some by public authorities and some by the Ombudsman. Others might be filed for intelligence purposes with no further action taken at the time. The Commissioner tends to investigate the most serious corruption matters.
